About Gerald Locke

Gerald Locke is an author of atmospheric, genre-bending fiction spanning dark fantasy, cosmic mystery, occult urban fantasy, and modern gothic horror. His stories explore the tension between power and consequence, myth and reality, creation and destruction — always through the lens of deeply human characters navigating extraordinary worlds.

Across series like The Chronicles of Elifdar, The Veilborn Trilogy, and The Solomon Arcanum, Locke builds layered universes filled with lore, resonance, shadow, and the fragile boundaries between worlds. His standalone horror novels — including The Silversmith, Night Maw, and The Vere — push into the raw, intimate fears that linger in quiet rooms and unlit corners.

When not writing, he is worldbuilding, designing lore codices, and crafting interconnected myths across multiple universes. His work emphasizes immersive atmosphere, emotional depth, and a cinematic narrative style that pulls readers into the dark — and keeps them there.
